The National Council on Museums and Monuments (NCMM) has hosted a three-day workshop on Museum Digitisation at the National Museum of Unity, Aleshinloye, Ibadan, organised by the Public Affairs Section of the United States Consulate General, Lagos. Abdulkerim Oshioke Kadiri, the Acting Director-General of NCMM, who was represented at the opening event by Mrs. Edith Ekunke, Director of Museums, stated that “Digitisation has become the future of all industries, especially museums. As salient as digitisation is, it is still new to the third world clime, Nigeria inclusive. “Experts from the US have come here to conduct training on museum digitisation. He added that the workshop had a national reach and similar events will follow in line with the US mission’s commitment he mentioned earlier.
